Summer She Flew


Not believing she's almost gone, and already feeling a little nostalgic for the long lazy days and langorous warm evenings of midsummer, here are a few glimpses of our summer.. for Chris and me here in the San Francisco Bay Area...


a duck I saw, somewhere near the sea.. isn't she pretty?


remember those plums I kept posting about
on Facebook?


I spent as much time as I could in my little greenhouse
this summer.. can you blame me?


maybe take a little break from the rake



our backyard took on a "Maxfield Parish" vibe


walked past this neighbor's roses a thousand times this summer...


...on my way to the farmer's market to buy fresh eggs.


looking straight up through the sunroof while stopped in traffic
on the Golden Gate Bridge this summer


my husband's favorite, we always have
lots of artichokes when they are in
season


our little room at the Panama Hotel


I did not see enough of these sunsets in Sayulita this summer, that's for sure


walked and stopped here hundreds of times for croissant...
... and cafe au lait


pored over my grandmother and mother's joint passport I found
this summer.. from 1922!.. and this is just the first page! I love

the frame-worthiness of this


...and admired the dahlias and succulents that thrive in the cool..



Hoping yours has been wonderful... and if you live "Down Under"... how lucky you are to be coming into spring with summer soon to follow! Keep us posted with lovely images!

Simply Thrilled : Chic Provence Named in Top Five Blogs in San Francisco!




Alongside such luminaries in the design scene as Grant K. Gibson "the Blog", Katiedid, Porcelains & Peacocks, and The Adventures of Tartanscot, I am thrilled Chic Provence is included in the lineup of the top five San Francisco design blogs by San Francisco Magazine! The list was chosen by the amazing and gracious Diane Dorrans Saeks, famed writer of twenty design books and innumerable design and lifestyle articles, editor on many publications and blogger of The Style Saloniste.

More about the lovely Diane Dorrans Saeks. Diane has written the following books..I am quite certain you have at least one of these on your shelves. She has an amazing reach in the world of design and travels the world over absorbing culture, design, images and history and bringing the latest design trends and hottest designers into the spotlight from her unique perspective. And I happen to know she is a fabulous speaker and real-life guide through the best of the design ateliers here in San Francisco..her Saturday workshops are amazing!
